Currently, a NULL pointer dereference will happen in function `dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling()` (at line 615), in case `chain` is not allocated in `mock_chain()` and this function returns `NULL` (at line 86). See below:
drivers/dma-buf/st-dma-fence-chain.c: 86 chain = mock_chain(NULL, f, 1); 87 if (!chain) 88 err = -ENOMEM; 89 90 dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling(chain);
Instead of the larger patch, should line 88 here just do a "return -ENOMEM" instead?

drivers/dma-buf/dma-fence.c: 611 void dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling(struct dma_fence *fence) 612 { 613 unsigned long flags; 614 615 spin_lock_irqsave(fence->lock, flags); ^^^^^^^^^^^ | NULL pointer reference if fence == NULL
616 __dma_fence_enable_signaling(fence); 617 spin_unlock_irqrestore(fence->lock, flags); 618 }
Fix this by adding a NULL check before dereferencing `fence` in `dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling()`. This will prevent any other NULL pointer dereference when the `fence` passed as an argument is `NULL`.
